On arrival, the aircraft were received by the Honourable Minister of Defence, Major General Bashir Magashi (Rtd), alongside the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya and the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Oladayo Amao.

NAF said the second batch of the remaining 6 A-29 Super Tucanos are expected in Nigeria before the end of 2021.
